Previous installments of this article series discussed the need to verify SPICE model accuracy and how to measure the output impedance, small-signal bandwidth, and input-referred errors of operational ...

Measuring this one vital parameter (Input Offset Voltage) provides a simple means of determining if the DUT (Device Under Test) is either good or bad. The circuit is very simple, requiring only four ...

Maybe you are familiar with the op-amp as an extremely versatile component, and you know how to quickly construct a huge variety of circuits with one. Maybe you even have a favorite op-amp or two for ...

What applications require precision op amps? Precision amplifiers originally evolved to fill the needs of the test and measurement community. This arena demanded test system elements with much more ...

You think of op amps as amplifiers because, no kidding, it is right in the name. But just like some people say, “you could do that with a 555,” [Doctor Volt] might say, “you can do that with an op amp ...

In a simplified schematic from its datasheet, Linear Technology's LTC6268 (and 6269 dual) provide no evidence of "secret sauce." Rather, it shows a combination of semiconductor design and process ...
